Will my electric rasor function in
Jordan?
|
|
The
electricity in Jordan is 220 to 240 V AC, 50 Hz. Therefore, bring
along an adaptor as well as a transformer if necessary, because it
is sometimes hard to find in hotels.

Can we drink tap water at the hotel?
|
|
Standards
of hygiene in Jordan are high and the main risk to visitors is
exhaustion and heat, and of course the changing life style. Most of
4 or 5 stars hotels contain additional purification systems. But,
whatever the technique used, it does not eliminate the slight
percentage of chlorine in the water…Thus, most people drink bottled
water; tap water is generally safe but salty and not particularly
pleasant.
